FMLB Chapter 74

Chapter 74- Wearing Boyfriend’s Clothes

Xi Guican blushed, squatting by the bathroom door, pressing down the tiger ears that popped out, but as soon as she managed to press down the left one, the right ear popped out with a whoosh.

Stay calm.

Ah, I can’t stay calm at all!

Xi Guican grabbed his tiger ears, anxiously rubbing them, almost pulling the fur off before stopping in a panic.

If He Ruge was the mysterious gift from the game, then what about the game?

What about He Ruge in the game?

At the thought of this, Xi Guican hurriedly opened his light brain, found the icon for “Your Exclusive Lover” game, and opened the game with the light brain, unable to have an immersive experience.

Similar to He Ruge opening the game on the computer, a completely different login interface popped up:

Game Identity: Xi Guican or ‘He Ruge’

Login: ‘Yes’ or ‘No’

You can still choose identities?!

Xi Guican widened his eyes in shock, like a naive country bumpkin stunned by this up-to-date game. After the shock, his hand driven by curiosity pointed to ‘He Ruge’, wanting to try a completely new gaming experience.

Ding——Identified a bald tiger

Identity verification failed, please play the game with integrity!

The bald tiger reluctantly pressed to Xi Guican.

Ding——Identified a bald tiger

Identity verification successful, we wish you a pleasant game!

“…”

This is too much.

The Q version of tiger paw prints appeared on the pink game interface, countless paw prints overlapping, as if an angry little tiger with wings was stomping around, stomping out hearts made of paw prints.

At the center of the heart was a very simple progress bar:

Fate Offset Degree: 30%

‘If you find an exclusive lover for you, would you be willing to protect him and incidentally protect the world?’

What does Fate Offset Degree mean?

Can this game change his destiny?

And finding an exclusive lover.

What does this ‘finding’ mean? If He Ruge is a game character, then it should be ‘created’. The fact that ‘finding’ can be used indicates that He Ruge existed before the game appeared.

Is He Ruge a real person?

Actually, this guess had appeared in Xi Guican’s heart a long time ago, with a vague outline, but he often felt that this idea was too absurd.

As realistic as holographic games can be, they can only simulate reality in the game. However, just now, He Ruge did indeed fall from the sky and into his bathtub, with the red fish tail dragonfly-like brushing against his legs.

No game can achieve this level.

Xi Guican remembered the spiritual vortex that appeared only when ascending, and his frown deepened.

What kind of sacred place is the Bureau of Three Thousand Worlds Marriage Fate Management?

“If we find you an exclusive lover, would you be willing to protect him and, incidentally, protect the world?”

He couldn’t quite grasp the meaning of protecting the world.

Could he refuse?

As if sensing Xi Guican’s thoughts, a new dialogue popped up on the game interface.

“Choose to refuse, and your lover will be taken back!”

Upon seeing this sentence, all confusion was thrown aside, and his blue eyes almost shot flames.

They want to take back what’s already on the table? Absolutely not!

“Choose to accept, and you’ll be taught how to pursue your lover~”

Xí Guican felt a shameful flutter in his heart.

Accept: Yes or Yes

This blasted game didn’t even offer a “No” option. Feeling coerced and tempted, Xi Guican coldly snorted and, feeling somewhat reluctant, chose “Yes” like a reluctant bride.

A status bar appeared.

He Ruge

Paternal Love: He Ruge loves you very much, although most of the time it’s the love of a father for his child (Paternal love distortion progress 29%)

Awakened: He Ruge has finally passed his awakening period and turned into a merman, but his racial advantages have not yet been fully developed (Locked)

(Press again for detailed interaction)

“???”

Paternal love?

You see me as a lover? And now you want to be my dad???

Without a father or a lover, Xi Guican, if this game doesn’t tell him the truth, he might never realize that something was wrong.

Actually, looking at it from a different perspective, it’s not so bad.

He Ruge was giving him double the love.

Struggling to accept being overwhelmed with love, Xi Guacn first pressed “Paternal Love” to examine the more detailed interaction options.

Feeding: Different choices of food and feeding postures will have different effects. For example, if you choose to feed energy crystal mouth to mouth or handcraft a heart-shaped bento for He Ruge, the image you portray will differ between ‘sexy and rich’ and ‘considerate and warm-hearted’.

Touching: Touching hands, ears, or fishtails… There are techniques to touch, whether it’s the graceful and delicate style or the fierce and wild style, you need to master various factions.

Conversation: Sweet talk, teasing, heartwarming words, coquettish words… There are many speaking skills you need to learn.

“Press again for more detailed content.”

With a sincere thirst for knowledge, Xi Guican pressed “Awakened”.

Body

Lips: Sensitivity 3, he’s still not used to kissing.

Ears: Sensitivity 6, his ears are very sensitive, but even more so to you.

Waist: (Locked)

Tail: (Locked)

Anus: (Locked)

Voice

Clear: Holiness 35, such a clean and ethereal voice, truly delightful to listen to.

Alluring: (Locked)

Pearls

Golden Pearl: (Locked)

Pink Pearl: (Locked)

…

The door to the new world slowly opened to Xi Guican.

Having soaked in the bathtub for a while, He Ruge subconsciously wanted to reach for his phone.

Suddenly, he remembered that when he crossed over, his phone fell into the bathtub at home.

After soaking for so long, it was probably completely ruined.

But thankfully, all his new manuscripts were backed up!

A prepared writer never loses his drafts!

…Wait, why am I worrying about manuscripts when I’ve already crossed over?

Suddenly, a small piece of emptiness filled his heart. Something very important seemed to have been left in another world.

That world, which he had once thought he had nothing in, now He Ruge suddenly realized he had many things after leaving it.

Career and friendship.

Can he still go back?

He Ruge looked down, dazedly staring at his fish tail underwater, feeling an unreal sense of melancholy.

How much longer would it take for him to grow legs? Did he have to stay in the bathtub like this for three or four days, or even longer?

Just as He Ruge started to panic, Xi Guican’s head emerged from the bathtub, his eyes closed.

“You just successfully awakened. You must need energy crystal to replenish your energy. I’ve come to bring you energy crystals.”

As he spoke, he raised a hand holding the energy crystal, but didn’t know where to throw it.

“It’s okay, open your eyes.”

Seeing He Ruge subconsciously swallow saliva at the sight of the energy crystal, his body had already remembered the ecstatic joy brought by the energy crystal.

“This… isn’t really appropriate.”

Although he refused with his mouth, his eyes opened honestly. When Xi Guican saw the wet merman, his breath caught, and the energy crystal he was holding slipped from his hand and fell straight into the bathtub.

He Ruge picked up the energy crystal and was surprised to find that it was heart-shaped. He didn’t know if it naturally grew into a heart shape or if it was carved into a heart shape by a certain big tiger.

Although he received the energy crystal, He Ruge didn’t know how to absorb the energy. He looked up at Xí Guīcàn, who was eagerly watching, and hesitated.

“I don’t know how to absorb it.”

Waiting for He Ruge to ask for help, Xí Guīcàn quickly said, “Let me help you!”

He wanted to feed He Ruge mouth to mouth, as the strategy in the game suggested. He had already tasted the sweetness of mouth-to-mouth feeding once, but He Ruge was in the bathtub and he was outside.

Did he have to get into the bathtub?

This seemed a bit too hasty.

Being so sincere with He Ruge in the bathtub, Xi Guican might lose control of himself.

Just as Xi Guican was burning with impatience, a thought suddenly popped into his mind—

He could transform into his beast form!

Even though his beast form was bald, his head wasn’t bald. The bathtub wall covered everything below his neck, so He Ruge wouldn’t even notice that he was bald.

So, when He Ruge saw the furry head suddenly appear, the big white tiger said in a muffled voice, “Put the energy crystal in my mouth.”

After speaking, he stretched his neck and brought his head closer to He Ruge.

With a mouth that could easily bite off a head, the forest-white fangs were faintly visible. This ferocious beast’s appearance might scare others away, but it wouldn’t affect He Ruge.

Swimming to the large head, He Ruge placed the energy crystal into its gaping mouth. With the energy crystal held in the tiger’s mouth, those blue eyes looked over with anticipation.

He Ruge had already guessed what Xi Guican hadn’t said.

The posture was the same as before, but the feeling brought by the beast form and the human form was completely different. The fish tail gently swayed, and He Ruge reached out to hold the big white tiger’s face.

He couldn’t help but smile, and his smiling lips touched the tiger’s mouth holding the energy crystal.

The azure eyes instantly brightened, like the sea and sky igniting, the sparkling sea reflecting fragmented golden light.

Pure energy surged into his mouth, flowing through his limbs and bones. When the energy flowed through his fishtail, He Ruge felt the familiar warmth, and in an instant, his fish tail turned back into slender legs.

He Ruge absorbed the energy crystal as if in a trance, his eyes misty as he looked at Xi Guican. From Xi Guican’s perspective, he could see the beautiful scenery underwater, the rounded shoulders, slender waist…

The bathroom lights shone into the undulating water, creating a dreamy feeling as the light passed through the surface. His soft black hair floated like seaweed in the water. Even without a fish tail, He Ruge still looked like a quiet and ethereal merman.

Or rather, like an enchanting sea nymph, because those somewhat scattered black eyes had taken on a gentle and mysterious color.

The enchanted big white tiger couldn’t help licking the snowy white shoulder. The prickling pain from the thorny tongue woke He Ruge up. He turned to look at his reddened shoulder and subconsciously scooped up a handful of water, pouring it onto his shoulder to wash away the saliva.

When he raised his head again, He Ruge saw the familiar heartbroken expression. He couldn’t dwell on the topic of “whether he was disgusted by his saliva” anymore.

To change the subject, He Ruge hurriedly said, “Can you give me some clothes? I’ve finished bathing.”

The big white tiger left dejectedly and returned in a neatly dressed human form. He pressed the switch to drain the water from the bathtub and threw a set of pitch-black military uniform to He Ruge.

“This is the only type of clothes I have at home. You wear this first, and I’ll buy you suitable clothes soon.”

Xi Guican, outside the bathtub, couldn’t see He Ruge’s face inside the bathtub, full of hesitation.

He Ruge took the military uniform, hesitated to speak.

Should he tell Xi Guican… that he didn’t have any underwear?
